Is Tay Rock considered top tier?

[Ronnie Lott]

Is tay Rock top tier or will he always be average?

 

[MicIsGod]

He needs at least 1 top tier battle. imo. only top nikka he got was clips and we know that story. He's basically there tho.

i think tay rock is a little bit overrated and gets away with bars that others would never get away with

maybe its the story of tay rock coming from getting killed by clips to get some wins and become popular. maybe thats inspirational to some idk

 

[Millz]

is he considered mid tier yet? all that yellin and dem average bars with jab e'ry nowand then. if yall enjoyin his light bars then go ahead,

He had a good showing at SM3 but lets not get ahead of ourselves here. When you look at the big hitters on his CV (Clips & Magic), he lost to them (Yes, he really did lose to B-Magic, no way was it debatable). As someone said in the SM3 thread, I'd look at him at the gatekeeper for the top tier rappers albeit not being one himself.

Tay rock is corny

all that calling your bars light, and talking during you opponents round shyt is wack to me.

You mean bars that nikkas let surf get away with?

 

[Kufismack]

Personally no, but I'm not aware of his entire catalog to make a definitive opinion. He spits fire sometimes then gets cocky, that's my problem with him.

so no top tier dudes have Ls? Magic lost to Heartless and Real Deal we gonna hold that against him?

Yea honestly him and surf in the same boat

I guess fans get on who they get on and give passes to who they want to .

I do think sometimes people have momentum on thier side and so guys will just give them wins and never watch it again without being real about that battle

Of course top tier dudes have taken Ls but what keeps them in the top tier is what they're bringing to the table. To me, Tay Roc has excellent aggression but he has a lot of weak bars and that doesn't really bode well for him since his style, for the most part, is literally...filler, filler, haymaker, filler, filler, haymaker. He's like Hitman lite without the guaranteed 1 round KO.

but now he's just beat clips, roc AND most likely DNA. Roc has beat rich dolarz.

exactly. Surf does get away with alot of "light bars" too. But i still fukks with surf tho. His aggression and haymakers hit like crazy
